~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: The Gleem Library, The Underground City Of Maero, Desert, The Continent Of Alforza)~~~

~~~(Time: 10:48 PM)~~~

Sally and I are still being led up the floor of The Gleem Library by Taaro. According to her, we're almost to the floor where the Dungeon starts. The higher we go in the library, the more questions I seem to have. The floors become weirder and no longer just about books.

Some of the floors we passed we completely empty, and dust was all that remained. I asked Taaro what it was that led to such a state, and she didn't answer. Perhaps a trade secret of the people who work in the library, but I can't be certain.

"How many floors do we have left to climb? I'm getting so tired of walking upstairs. Being in the Trial for so long has caused me to be ready to fight at any moment."

My elven companion seems impatient in regard to action. She was gone for a few months in her time, but only a couple of hours for us. Makes sense that she's eager to fight, given how used to it she's gotten. I like this change in Sally.

Being able to fight at a moment's notice is a great advantage that many don't have. Well, used to have. Most Players are ready to fight at a moment's notice.

"There are only a few floors left. I must warn you. The Dungeon up here is one you'll never find somewhere else. Many great and powerful warriors of the Des'merta have tried to clear the Dungeon. You might have better odds, but that's not a promise."

Our guide only seems to fuel the fire of an actual challenge in me. Sure, I'm a great fighter, and I'm powerful. But I also haven't been challenged really hard yet, not to the point where I think I'm actually going to die.

Having knowledge of the future prevented that from happening to me. After all this time, there are certain things that are boring for me. Thankfully, the system made Dungeons scale to the Players, that way. I can at least be hurt now.historical

"How old is the Dungeon we're heading to?"

Sometimes, you can discern how powerful something is by its age within The Ancients World. It's not a surefire method, but it certainly helps.

We make it to another floor before Taaro can answer my answer, and she leads us to a staircase that continues to lead higher. I'm still waiting for an answer, and I'm beginning to think I won't get one even if I want one from her.

"It's as old as the library. We don't know a lot about the Dungeon. Only that it's Legendary in Grade, and some item, book, or scroll is causing the Dungeon to exist."

I've heard of such things before, and a perfect example is the Book of Xeelia that Sally has now. The Legendary Ice Magic Book caused an environmental change.

Something has to be extremely powerful to create a Dungeon of Legendary Grade. There will be incredibly powerful enemies within it. Thankfully, Sally has upgraded her Class to Legendary after completing the Trial.

"That's not much of an answer..."

Sally is dissatisfied with her answer to my question as much as I am. We don't have an exact number on the age of The Gleem Library. Only that's it's more than 300 years old. I can only assume it's around that age.

Perhaps older. A Dungeon that's been around for 300 years, and no Des'merta have been able to beat it. From some of the books I've read in the library, there have been figures in Des'merta history that had Legendary Classes.

And they still couldn't beat the Dungeon we're heading to.

"Does the Dungeon at least have a name?"

I'd like a name for the place that's going to prove as a challenge for me. I'm looking forward to the fights. Taaro slows down as we make it to the next floor, and she leads us to the staircase that leads higher. However, she stops at the bottom step and turns to us.

"This is where I leave you two. I can't go beyond this point in the library. The Dungeon prevents it. If you wish to go higher, you take on the Dungeon. We don't know how many floors are attached to the Dungeon, only that it's a lot."

She still hasn't told us the name of the Dungeon yet. She sees my unhappy expression and slowly pulls out a piece of paper from her robe. Handing it to me.

[The Dungeon Of The Key]

"Are you able to read that, Radueriel?"

I lift my eyes from the paper. Giving her a look as if she's questioning my intellect.

"Yeah, it says The Dungeon Of The Key."

A smile slowly graces her lips, and I can't help thinking something more is going on here. Before I can ask for a deeper explanation, she already starts to explain, and what I hear puts me on alert.

"The name of the Dungeon is written in the Divine Angelic Language. No one, until this point, has been able to translate it. Makes sense now, given how only someone with Divine Blood could understand the writing."

The Language of the Angels and Gods is what the name of the Dungeon is written in... If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is. This could be connected to the entire Radueriel identity, and maybe I can get some answers as I came here to get them.

Sally's hand finds its way to my wrist, and she looks at me with worry. The Dungeon we're about to take on is very powerful, and if it's connected to me, that means the odds of something going wrong are high. I turn my attention back to Taaro and step forward.

"Thank you for all the help, Taaro. I know we've been an inconvenience to you. I'll try to find out what's inside the Dungeon. If there is anything the Des'merta should be concerned about, I'll be sure to inform you once we're done."

She bows her head in a showing of respect and disappears in a flash of light. Now it's just Sally and me.

"What do you think we'll find in there?"

That's a good question, and one I have every intention of finding an answer to. We've been up all day, and it's almost midnight at this point. I think it'd be best if we got some sleep before we continued. After all, I don't know how long we'll be in there.

~~~(Time: 11:39 PM)~~~

I wish Radueriel the best in his journey into the Dungeon. I can only assume it's been left there for him by the people we call Gods and Angels. The Des'merta and Radueriel are connected, and this could be one of the big pieces.

Right now, I'm looking across the meeting room. All the leaders over the Des'merta are here. And I can tell this meeting is going to be an important one. The Gleem Library is the best place for these meetings.

"Our war with The Regeliance Kingdom. It'd help us greatly if we could have Radueriels help. Taaro, when do you think he'll be finished with what he's doing?"

Xilo is sitting next to the woman who's speaking... The Priestess Mother... They've been planning something for a long time when Xilo found Radueriel in the desert.

They've been saying a prophecy is in the course of being finished. Telling us we're in the final stretch. I don't know what it is, but I know that the priestess are hardly wrong.

I can't help worrying for my people. The Regeliance Kingdom is extraordinarily powerful.
